Thanks. As everyone knows i rarely venture this far from home but I've always been curious about this. Jerry looks so good. Around the Kona snorkeling times I think.

"The Warlocks" shows have been in regular rotation ever since getting them on tape a few weeks after. Both nights sound incredible.

Night 2 -

I think you are correct. Jerry was doing the snorkeling thing around this time. I credit Jacques Cousteau with showing me the ocean, but Jerry pushed me in. 😜

Nice gift. My last vision of him includes a black aloha shirt at the Shell in Waikiki. Looked like a degenerate Thomas Magnum.

This was my parents' first show. They wanted to see what all the hubbub was about, and I had a couple extra tickets for them. Overall they enjoyed it. My dad later said that some of the spacey music was a bit much for him, but he liked it when Mickey played his talking drum*.

*I had a talking drum, so he was familiar with it.

very cool! How old were they? I was 52 in 1989, but I've enjoyed the band since my first show on 10/9/76.
My parents would have screamed and run out. They were big on Nat King Cole and The Son's of the Pioneers haha! (actually, I like those artists too) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQc5gDXQGIs
